I have experienced similar problems.

A solution was to "startx /usr/bin/startkde" to enter KDE.

I've noticed the following problem:

# update-alternatives --display x-session-manager
x-session-manager - status is manual.
 link currently points to /usr/bin/kde3# it doesn't exist
/usr/bin/startkde - priority 40
Current `best' version is /usr/bin/startkde.

# update-alternatives --auto x-session-manager   # to fix the problem

# update-alternatives --display x-session-manager   #  to check if it has been 
fixed
x-session-manager - status is auto.
 link currently points to /usr/bin/startkde
/usr/bin/startkde - priority 40
Current `best' version is /usr/bin/startkde.

Good luck  ;)

kde3.2 and startx

2004-03-07 Thread Roy Pluschke 
Now that kde3.2 is coming into sid I have been unable to start kde from the 
command line with startx.  X starts up and then just quits back to the 
command line.  My ".xsession" file contains the line "exec kde3" which worked 
for kde 3.15 but not now. Note that exec gnome-session and exec wmaker both 
work fine from my ".xsession" file as does starting kde3.2 from kdm so it is 
not an X problem.  Does anybody know the magic incantation to place in 
my .xsession file to start kde3.2 with startx?

thanks in advance
R.J.P.
